The 1994-mm self-loading rifle B-12,7 was created in 94 in the Instrument Design Bureau (Tula). After the modifications, the B-94 sniper rifle was put into service under the designation OCB-96.

The OSV-96 large-caliber sniper rifle is designed to solve tactical sniper tasks (destruction of manpower protected by individual armor, lightly armored vehicles, coastal defense from small vessels, detonation of sea mines), as anti-sniper (defeat enemy snipers) or sabotage (incapacitation Radar, missile and artillery installations, aviation equipment in parking lots). The rifle OSV-96 - self-loading.

The mechanism is a gas vent, the locking is carried out by turning the bolt directly behind the barrel, which allows you to unload the receiver and make it fold around the front end, immediately behind the barrel attachment point. Fold out is necessary because the rifle is very large in length and inconvenient to store and transport . Reducing recoil when shooting is achieved by installing an effective muzzle brake and a shock-absorbing butt plate.

The barrel of the rifle is equipped with a long muzzle brake - a flame arrester.

The bipods are mounted on a special console fixed in the front (folding together with the barrel) part of the receiver.
The stock has a rubber cushion pad.

The rifle is not designed for shooting from hands and does not have a forearm. The rifle is completed with POS 12x50 or PKN-05 sights. At the same time, OCB-96 can be equipped with various optical and night sights.

Shooting at night at a distance of up to 600 m is conducted with an electron-optical sight. A five-round magazine and automatic reloading allow, if necessary, to fire at a high pace.

The OSV-96 sniper rifle is mainly used by the Internal Troops of the Ministry of Internal Affairs and the Federal Security Service of Russia. In addition, the rifle is offered to all interested domestic and foreign buyers - various state power structures.

Of course, this is not a barrel (M107), but when finalized, it can be brought to the required level. In any case, it seems to me an interesting rifle. Only in the photo is not the ES-96 and VM-2000 (cal: 14.5-114)

The administration's second photo from the top is svd-u (roughly so called) + grandfather's comment.

Weight is not indicated. And it seems to me noisy, judging by the film

Nonsense ... PTR of the 40s was adjusted to the conditions, optics were added and everything, in this rifle, the main thing is not the barrel, but the cartridge.

[Patriot 05]

feeling as if the gun was assembled in a handicraft way. the old-fashioned way, as they say, "but cheap, reliable and practical", the result is important to me.

In -94, it doesn’t differ much from the OSV, all the difference that can be seen is the presence of a mechanical sight in the B-94, it wasn’t different and the rest is 1/1 about what and how it shoots behind the hill I won’t say much, but I got a rifle fired from the first hundred with the Kovrovsky trunk so it gave a scatter of no more than 400 cm by 6 meters. Of course, the trouble was with a sniper cartridge 12,7 individually, but it was worth it, of course you could only wish it to drag it in 1 face, but it normally divided by 2 . Yes, and cartridges in general, then the species of the sea if for a change. The sound of the shot is such that it seemed that the ears would fall off. But it is reliable, accurate and will be obtained due to small shelters, which is also a serious factor. In general, the army version. It’s a pity the guys won’t see her, she would help a lot, although the infection is severe, of course.

By the way, the second rifle of the OTs series is redone from the SVD thanks to the arrester, it shot more accurately and is more convenient to carry, it doesn’t have automatic fire; these are the first options for altering the SVD according to the Bulov system, but the bolt that holds this arrester is something you lose and control constantly so as not to lose a point on which it was shot, about spun a little and the ballistics fled. So also the option was not bad. Anyway, the first thing a sniper should do when receiving an SVD is to throw out a returnable full-time spring and dig a white one out of the ground.
